A chance to watch the documentary for free Now that an absurd amount ofMinecraftsales have happened on Xbox 360, it makes a bit more sense that the console would be home to the premier of2 Player Production’s documentaryabout the studio behind the hit game.

The worldwide numbers for Nintendo’s 3DS are in: 3.61 million units sold worldwide. The total count is from the Japan launch on February 26th through March 31st, or the end of Nintendo’s fiscal year. It sounds great, but I think it just misses their total expected number. Of course, this looks like nothing compared to the Nintendo DS figures for the entire fiscal year: 17.52 million units. The Wii managed to move 15....

Also, Forma.8 I have to warn you,Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle, one of the most anticipated Switch games in recent weeks, is actually out on August 29 — technically before the deadline of the next Nintendo Download week. With that out of the way, you’ll also findForma.8, Piczle Lines DX, andNeoGeo: Puzzledon the Switch. In a near unprecedented move, that’s it! No 3DS, no WiiWare, no Wii U! It’s not a great look that the 3DS isn’t even getting shovelware this week, and although Reggie claims that it’ll be supportedthrough next year and beyond, I’m dubious....

Because you only need one, right? Following the announcement ofinternational pricing for the HTC Vive, Brighton resident and VR gaming enthusiast Aaron Finnick began poking the left side of his body trying to guess how much his kidney would be worth on the open market. The highly anticipated device will begin shipping this April. Finnick says he’s been saving his brass and bread for months to get the VR device, but admits he isn’t even close to raising enough money....

The Iron Body steps back into the ring Last week’s Sony State of Play presentation was notable for its gameplay reveal of the final three characters joining the launch roster of Capcom’s great-looking punchfest,Street Fighter 6— And alongside the ever-popular Cammy and cutesy new gal Lily, we also saw the return of a true Street Fighter veteran, the wrestler with an iron body and a golden heart: Zangief.

I used to think that onlylicensed gamesandGeometry Warswere released onevery single console availble.Thankfully, I see the error of my ways, and have repented of my ignorant and pagan ways. Now, behold the glory of the 4 consoles in 1! Behold the fact thatBejeweled-for-the-hardcore-scene may or may not be coming to the Wii. According toAmazon,Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlordswill be coming to Nintendo’s money-printer-cum-paperweight on September 25, and it can be yours for the low, low price of $29....

Ahoy matey! This here be a videogame about pirates, ARRR! OK, I promise I won’t any more pirate jokes, but it’s going to be difficult.Risen 2: Dark Watersbrings the well-crafted role-playing ofRiseninto a Caribbean world filled with swashbucklers, voodoo, pistols, parrots, and silly monkeys. At first it might seem odd to try making a traditional Western RPG into a pirate game, but once I played through the first quarter ofRisen 2, it made me wonder why no one has tried this before....

Coming ‘when it’s ready’ Although it was only given a scant 30-second window during yesterday’s PC Gaming Show, ColePowered Games’Shadows of Doubtwas one of the more interesting titles to be showcased in the two hour-plus live stream and as such bears closer inspection. Shadows of Doubtis a neo-noir mystery game set within a highly-industrialised 1980s, where information is currency and a solid living can be made doing some serious snooping. Players will take up the role of such a snooper and will be offered full freedom to explore a huge, living city....

The Raving Rabbids must be popular in Ubisoft’s homeland of France, as they’re being used to sell cars out there. This commercial, featuring the “Lapins Crétins”, shows off the new feature of the Renault Scénic — a camera that lets you see what’s happening when you’re backing up. As you may see, those stupid rabbits are putting it to nefarious use. OH THOSE DUMB RABBITS WHATWILLWE DO WITH THEM!? I love the idea of the Rabbids being called Lapins Crétins....

When Activision said thatGuitar Herowasgetting killed, it meant the whole damn deal. A few people wondered if we’d at least get new downloadable content, but the publisher has stated that after February, the well officially goes dry. “We will release the previously announced DLC track and mix packs for February,” revealed social media lord Dan Amrich, “but we will not be able to release new DLC packs.” Makes sense, really....
